History / Why did Hitler kill so many Jews in Poland? [261]
Outside of why, you should consider how. 12 year old Poles picked up rifles and fought, how is it that 3 million Jews didn't know it was time to do the same? Hitler knew their fifth column syndrome well, and knew they had no loyalty to the Polish state. Thus it was easy to march them in mass to the camps, where they attempted to collectively wait out the fighting, and more importantly the dying portion of the Nazi invasion of Poland.
It's funny that the Jewish Ghetto uprising is so celebrated, which was only a couple hundred Jews faced with life or death, who finally decided to fight. And I heavily emphasize the word "finally", because a 3 million person army to help the war efforts would have been a nice addition, and some would say the right thing to do. But ever the nation within a nation, what can you expect from these people.
Every single Jew I have ever met, hates Poles more than they hate Germans themselves. It's weird too, considering what Poles have done for them both before and after the war. "We own the streets, they own the buildings"... Poles died for those streets honorably, can't say the same for the Jews and their buildings.
